274 - The great menopause myth

Joining Dr Louise on this week’s podcast are US-based Kristin Johnson and Maria Claps, authors of new book The Great Menopause Myth: The Truth on Mastering Midlife Hormonal Mayhem, Beating Uncomfortable Symptoms, and Aging to Thrive.

Kristin and Maria share their own menopause stories, why they wanted to write a book to help others and why menopause can be the best time of your life.

The pair also share the four things, besides hormones, that can help women during this time:

1. Education
2. Exercise
3. Nourishing your body with the right foods
4. Managing stress
